    See Table for motor and drive package data. Since 2001, all 1-hp and greater motors supplied by Carrier for the 39L series air handling units are designed and constructed for use with variable frequency drives. If a field-supplied motor is in- stalled, ensure the motor is suitable for use with a VFD.

    Fig. 28 — Determining Sheave-Shaft Overhang ALIGNMENT Make sure that fan shafts and motor shafts are parallel and level. The most common causes of mis-alignment are nonparallel shafts and improperly located sheaves. Where shafts are not parallel, belts on one side are drawn tighter and pull more than their share of the load.

    Piping practices are outlined in the Carrier System Design Manu- al, Part 3, Piping Design. See Tables -11 for circuiting data. WATER COILS Typically, coils are piped by connecting the supply at the bottom and the return at the top. See Fig. 32. This is not always the case, especially if the coil hand has been changed in the field.
